One of Dani Bunten’s early classics, Computer Quarterback, published in 1979, in Brian Moriarty’s tribute, “was originally designed to support exactly two players. It was ported to Apple BASIC from a mini-computer simulation written in Fortran. In an amusing reversal of recent industry practice, it was the single-player mode that was reluctantly added at the last minute at the request of the publisher, SSI.” A fun game that was ahead of its time
